A$AP Rocky

I went to see A$AP Rocky on Thursday evening and it was like all of my dreams came true.

Although we were waiting about an hour between the opening act and actual Lord Flacko, it was totally worth it. Opening with 'Suddenly' he began by rapping from off stage but as the beat dropped, the lights brightened, A$AP appeared and we went bat shit crazy. I'm not kidding, the continous mosh pit that never ceased during the show was mental. After the first few tracks me and my friend had grasped the basic survival techniques to be successful in a crowd of moshers and had managed to weave our way towards the front (you basically have to rotate around the circle they form). By this time everyone was a sweaty mess but we didn't even care. A$AP Rocky had taken off his top at this point too so I all I was bothered about was getting a closer look at the glowing angel before me.

He rapped songs from the latest album, Long Live A$AP, as well as taking it back a few with tracks such as Peso and Hands On The Wheel from the previous album. I'd say that Wild For The Night was the track that got everyone hyped the most but the audience (especially me and Rosie) were going mental throughout, whichever song came on. He also kept calling us all 'family' and got involved in passing out water to our dehydrated selves, which was nice of him.

I'm definitely getting tickets next time he's in town and I'm going to wait all day if I have to just to be at the front. Yahurrrr. Look at how live Wild For The Night was (I was literally just to the left of this guy, right in the middle of the crowd):
